[samigo-team] Call for Samigo Agenda Items

Tue Feb 7 10:16:11 PST 2012

Thanks Keli.  I'll take a closer look.

On the issue of anonymous users, I've created and submitted surveys in
lots of online survey applications, and I've never comes across one that
has a submit button on every page.      That makes it awfully easy for
user to submit when they didn't really intend to do so.  Perhaps changing
the button label to something like "submit and exit early" would help.
